The Best Medicine Ever Put in . Bottle for Chills and Fever.

Mir. H. II. Farver, Yorktown, Ark. writes: T came here with my wife and five children. The first year my family were all down with chills and fever. I had doctor to attend them and tried all the known remedies, but without success, until l got hold ot Hughes Tonic, which has cured them entirely. l have kept the medicine in the house ever since. Hughes Tonic is the best medicine ever put in bottle for chills and fever. It breaks them up without reducing the system"

NOT MUCH, 1 THANK YOU.

From the Chicago Tribune.
The Chicago representative of a for
elgn insurance company. which was con
sldering the question OF reducing lis
risks in Kansas City and Wichita. Kan.
recently visited those towns. HereDorted
that there was vet no reason for taking
In sail. He found at Wichita that within
twentY-four hours the citizens had raised
$4,000 as a bonus To a packing concern
which was desired to come there As to
other enterprises he says: Il visited the
plant of the Burton car works. where |
found five very large brick buildings lust
being rooted in. and when these are fin
lShed it is contemplated building a SINH
lar group south of the present ones. New
houses are Sprlnglng up all around this
plant, which Is located about three or
four miles north of the center of Wichita.
A large building for the ma0ufac-
ture of agricultural implements IS
under way IN another section
and in the center there are five or six
very substantial and handsome brick
editices for Office and business purposes:
fine new hotel is being finished. and
also a new building for the Young Mems
Christian Association, for which so. GOO
in cash was raised in one day in one OF
the churches. In conversation with real
estate men | learned that ali transactions
made in Wichita were on the basis of
about so per cent cash and the balance
inside of year. but usually not later
than nine months. and THAI up TO this
time no sales nnder foreclosure had &C
CURED. To be sure. outside property is
not so active as it was in the spring,
though there does not seem TO be any
undue anxiety to unload.

LEGISLATIVE COMPLICATIONS.

There is no doubt that the tariff ques-
ton will constitute the principal theme
of disputation and legislation before the
fiftieth congress. The immense surplus
in the treasury and its rapid increase
makes it imperative that something be
done to relieve the unnecessary burden
that rests upon the people and at the
same time restore to circulation the large
amount of currency that now lies locked
up in the vaults of the treasury. The
large increase i'll the expenditures of the
government will preclude the idea of
relieving the treasury through increased
appropriations to any great extent, and
the only means left for affecting the re-
lief demanded is through reduction of
control, not only of the popular branch
of congress in which measures effecting
the revenues must originate, but also of
the government, upon that party rests
the responsibility of affording or with
holding the relief required by
the country at large. Realiz
ing such responsibility, the lead
ers Of that party have had repeated
conferences of late for the express pur-
pose of arranging plan of procedure
upon which the party factions could
unite. From expressions credited to
some Of the more prominent leaders of
late, however, it would seem that that
degree Of harmony does not prevail be-
tween said factions necessary to united
action on this important matter: in fact
they occupy attitudes towards each 9th
er more menacing and antagonistic than
conciEatory and coniding. In speaking
on the subject a few days ago Speaker
Carlisle is quoted as saying:
A measure can be prepared which should
he satisfactory TO all Democrats. and those
who prefer Republican doctrines on that
subject can put themselves on record That
way. We viii know where they stand II
viii be interesting to see how they will JUS
tify themselves before the party at large
and III the face of the president and secre-
taTy of the treasury, if they are to be the
means OF frustrating policy which the
administration is willing to adopt and for
" hich ii is willing TO be responsible
On the other hand Mr. Randall. the
leader Of the opposing faction on that
question, is represented as being as de
termined in the maintenance of his posi-
hon as ever. and he is encouraged by the
accession to bis ranks of certain repre-
Sentauves from the south, notably Mr
Gibbs Of Texas who has hitherto
been an active tariff ref0rmer. The pro-
hlbltlonists leaders of the country have
also announced their determination to
press the question of total abolition of
the internal tax ON liquors. the point of
their argument being that the taxes de
rived from that source represent the eX-
act amount of excess of the government
revenues. OF course this is the initial
move looking 60 prohibitory legislation

Yet an unknown quantity, viii no doubt

of the tariff question. In view of the
complicated condition of the matter,
therefore, the coming session of congress
may be expected TO be Of unusual interest

dangerous precedent
So long as such authority is lodged
with the Secretary 1t ia certain to be
taken unwarrantable advantage of by
unscrupulous spectators and stock
jobl crs.
1t practically encourages the Wall
street gamblers in thcir reckless veu-
lures, and would enable a Secretary, If
so disposed, to cnnniye at profitable
operations in the interest Of himself
and his friends.
This absolute power becomes more
of menace than shield to the legill.
mate business interests OF the country.
If every little furry in the money
market, caused by rascally bank man
agement or personal rivalries on the
Stock Exchange, descending to all sorts
of stratagems and frauds and sensa-
tional canards to disturb prices, Is to be
taken note of by the Secretary of the
Treasury with an order on the Treas.
ury for relief, nothing like a steady
market is ever to be depended on, and
the trade and commerce of the coun
try must suffer accordingly.
Let the Treasury be kept indepen'
dent of Wall street and Congress alone
be empowered to gauge the necessities
of critical situation and make proper
provision for them. To Congress;
alone, as the direct representative of thu
